Kendrick Lamar delivered a high-voltage moment at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Tuesday night (April 29), surprising fans by bringing out Playboi Carti during his Grand National Tour stop.

The crowd erupted when Carti appeared on stage to perform “GOOD CREDIT,” the duo’s recent collaboration. With Carti’s chaotic energy and Lamar’s precise delivery, the pair lit up the stage in what’s already being hailed as one of the tour’s standout moments. “If someone told me five years ago Kendrick and Carti would share a stage, I’d call you crazy,” one fan posted on X.

The Grand National Tour, co-headlined by Kendrick Lamar and SZA, launched on April 19 in Minneapolis and is set to hit major cities including Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and London. According to Touring Data, the tour’s opening night grossed over $9.1 million — a record-setting figure for the venue. Early projections suggest the tour could surpass $100 million in total revenue.

Atlanta’s performance not only reinforced Lamar’s reputation for creating unforgettable live experiences, but also highlighted the dynamic chemistry between two artists with vastly different styles. The Grand National Tour continues across North America and Europe through the summer of 2025, with fans eagerly awaiting what surprises might come next.
